Biography
Olivier Gedet was a Deputy of the Assembly of the French Republic during the Reign of Terror, and after the vote to execute King Louis XVI of France was passed in January 1793, he invited political rival Antoine Gerard and his wife Madeleine to join him for dinner at the house of Gerard's rival, Michel Hennebert. However, the result was Hennebert's poisoning by Gerard, and Gedet narrowly avoided accusation as the murderer.
